7:50 am
traffic, that is why they are saying no matter where you live in the l.a. area is going to be tight because there are a lot of travelers in the area. they have been telling people for months to stay clear. >> more than half a million people normally drive the 405 daily. how they are calling it "carmageddon". jeff blue is offering $45 one-way trips. >> we are now learning the identity of the man who was killed in a crash yesterday, 52 year-old kenneth brown, a doctor and associate professor with the department of psychology at ucsf was killed in the cell crash when the shuttle brush collided with the big rig in san francisco. he is being remembered as a gifted predicator and expert in by color and a psychotic disorders. her he leaves behind

>> the american people expect that we actually try to solve this problem. during the course of these discussions with congressional leaders, what i tried to emphasize we have a unique opportunity to do something big. we have a chance to stabilize america's finances for a decade, 15 years or 20 years, if we are willing to
8:01 am
seize the moment. what that would require would be some shared sacrifice and a balanced approach that says we are going to make significant cuts in domestic spending and i have already said i am willing to take on domestic spending to lowest percentage of our overall economy since dwight eisenhower. it also requires cuts in defense spending. in addition to the 400 billion we have already cut from defense spending we are willing to look for hundreds of billions more. it would require us taking on health care spending. that includes all looking at medicare and finding ways that we can stabilize the system so that it is available not just for this generation, but for future generations and, it would require revenue. even as we are asking the person who needs a student loan or the senior citizen or veterans trying to
8:02 am
get by on disability, even as we are trying to make sure that all of those programs are affordable we are also saying to people like myself who can afford excepit, that we are able to do, that millionaires and billionaires are able to do more, the close corporate loopholes so that oil companies are not getting unnecessary tax breaks or that corporate jets owners are not getting unnecessary tax breaks. if we take that approach, i am confident that we can not only impress the financial markets, but more importantly we compress the american people that we can actually get something done once in awhile. let me acknowledge what everyone understands, it is a difficult to do a big
8:03 am
package. my republican friends have said that they are not willing to do revenues and they have repeated that on several occasions. my hope is that they are listening and not just to lobbyists for special interest here in washington, but they are also listening to the american people. various polls show it is not just democrats who think we need to take a balanced approach, republicans as well. the clear majority of republican voters think that any deficit reduction package should have a balanced approach and should include some revenues. that is not just democrats. that is the majority of republicans. you have an entire slow of republican officials from previous administrations, you have a bipartisan commission that has said we need revenues.
8:04 am
this is not just a democratic understanding, this is an understanding that i think the american people have, we should not be asking sacrifices of middle-class or working hard every day, from the most vulnerable in our society, we should not be asking them to make sacrifices if we're not asking the most fortunate to make sacrifices as well. i am still pushing for us to achieve a big deal. what i also said to the group is, if we cannot do the biggest deal possible, what's still be ambitious. let's still try to at least get a down payment on deficit reduction. that we can actually accomplish here without huge changes in revenue or significant changes in entitlements, but we could still send a signal that we're serious about this problem. the
8:05 am
fallback position and the third option, the least practical is one in which we raise the debt ceiling, but we do not make any progress in revenues or deficit. this problem will continue to plague us for months and years to come. i think it is important for the american people that everyone in this town set politics aside, that everyone sets individual interests aside and try to do some tough things. i have already taken heat from my party for being willing to compromise. my expectation and hope is that everyone in the coming days will be willing to compromise. the last point that i will make, we are obviously running out of time. what i have said to members of congress is, over the next 24-36 hours, you
8:06 am
need to give me some sense of what your plan is to get the debt ceiling raised through whatever mechanisms you can think of and show me a plan in terms of what you are doing for deficit and debt reduction. if they show me a serious plan, i am ready to move, even if it requires tough decisions on my part. i am hopeful that over the next couple of days we will see this logjam broken because the american people understand and want to see washington do its job. >> there, you have president obama wrapping up talks as the u.s. tries to raise the debt ceiling and cutting spending. the u.s. government spends 4 billion more a day than it takes in. 125 billion a month. harpener >> another kind of ceiling is
8:07 am
the ceiling over san francisco, it is kind of low this morning. we're waiting for clouds to lift. >> we have the tops of buildings obscured by low cloud cover. it will eventually pull back. i do not know san francisco will see clear skies, probably not, but other locations will. low clouds and cool temperatures. partly cloudy and breezy with temperatures still in the mid- 70s. overnight the fall will push back in and set us up for another foggy start tomorrow morning. sahere are your current temperatures.
8:08 am
8:09 am
>> the traffic coming into san francisco is still moving without delay. only a light back on the bay bridge toll plaza. on the sand detailed bridge, a problem free. a 13 minute drive time from end to end. your commute on the golden gate bridge, still a good commuter marin county. no delays on the span. the time is now 8:10 a.m.. we will take a quick break and kron 4 morning news will be right back.
